I had a baby months ago, but my back still hurts. What can I do about it?

You might need to get some help to make the pain go away. Pregnancy can be very tough on your body. The extra weight and new back alignment may have actually injured your back. Your doctor can suggest ways to manage the pain. It might be useful to see a physical or occupational therapist. A therapist can suggest exercises and stretches to return your back to its pre-pregnancy shape.
